What would most likely happen to a unicellular organism if it was exposed to a hypotonic solution for an extended period of time?It would shrivel and shrink.
It would swell to a point.
It would swell and then burst.
It would not be affected.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the second choice "It would swell to a point."

A hypotonic solution is any solution that has a lower osmotic pressure than another solution. In the biological fields, this generally refers to a solution that has less solute and more water than another solution.


I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Which of the following will NOT cause mass extinction?Drastic change in weather
Geological change
Both a and b
None of the above

Answers

Geological change will not cause a mass extinction, because it happens on a too big scale - on the scale of millions of years. During such long time, it is more likely that other causes will influence the survival of extinction of species, such as climate change or environmental disasters, and even if there is a small influence, it would not be significant next to other causes.

(04.02 MC)What evidence supports the law of conservation of energy?
Light energy is converted to chemical energy during photosynthesis.
O Oxygen is made from the breakdown of carbon dioxide during photosynthesis.
O Energy is absorbed by chlorophyll during photosynthesis.
The sun gives off light energy that is absorbed by plants.

Answers

Answer:

Light energy is converted to chemical energy during photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics, which is the LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be changed from one form to another. This law explains that the energy that exists cannot be made or destroyed, it can only be transformed from one of Its form to another.

The biological process of photosynthesis illustrates this law. Photosynthesis is the synthesis of organic molecules from inorganic molecules using the energy from sunlight. Plants, via their Chlorophyll pigment capture the light energy from the sun and use it to produce their food in form of organic molecules/glucose. This glucose is a chemical compound that stores energy in its chemical bonds.

Hence, photosynthesis supports the law of conservation of energy by changing/converting light energy from sun into a chemical energy in food (glucose).
